h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I forgot my bbc login name! for some reason, today when i came here, i wasnt logged in. then when i tried to, i completely forgot what imade my login name. I don't even remember my user ID thingy.
so i made this new account temporarily...

Is there any way that I could get h2g2 to email me my username and password?

I know my nickname was Katey, just like it is now...

Argh! This is so frustrating. Somoene help? Or am I just going to have to start over?

Well, what do you know?

The thing to do is mail [email protected] with all the information you do remember.

If you remember things from some entry you wrote (even your personal space) or some conversation you attended We can trace back your U123456 number )

Do you remember anything of the sort?

Yours,

Dancer

Oh! I remember some stuff...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/U186899 <-this is me

i know what my password is, and obviously i know what my email address is...

so do i just email them asking to send me my login name? orrr...what?

Hello,

Was you're nickname and user name not the same to begin with?

If you haven't tried it, go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/login and type:

BBC Login Name: Katey
BBC Password: [whatever it is]

If it fails, just e-mail the address above and you'll get your username back from them to the e-mail you have in your profile

no, a login name has to be at least 6 characters and katey is 5.

i tried kateyp, but that didn't work either.

i'll email that address then.

Thanks!

Tell us when you succeed

Dunno about Katey but this thread helped me

I've written the appropriate bits down and have secreted them in a seeecrit place (no - not the post it pad on my monitor)
